shoulda bought mine above lol
if you buy a steel spur you gotta buy the complete conversion kit that costs about 60 squid as you gotta buy the racing clutch bell too
Ive got the conversion, well worth it imo

This thread brings back a few memories! 
Its about 11 years since i gave up racing but ive still got all my old cars!!
Probably a bit archaic now but i'll never get rid! lol!
Got a Tamiya Escort cossie with the TA02 chassis converted to run with a Top Force Evo twin deck chassis and loads of different shells,
A front wheel drive Tamiya Honda Civic again with loads of shells,
Scumacher Cougar 2000 with the laydown front shocks (my first race car!),
Scumacher Cat 2000 EC with every upgrade I can remember!,
Scumacher SST 2000 again with every available upgrade,
Team Associated RC10 B2 with all the trick bits,
And a Tenth Technology Predator scale saloon which I have never actually driven!
Will try to get some pics up!!

Afternoon Lads, I used to be in RC racing years ago and am looking to get back into it.
Since it has been a long time I find it hard to understand everything again, I want to join my local club but it advices on using 27t brushed, 13.5 brushless cars which I am clueless about.
Can anyone recomend a good magazine or book to buy that can bring me upto speed again.
Oh I used to race a Grasshopper 2 by the way (still have it)

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
This is the business! I always wanted one of these as a kid. Loved the monster beetle and midnight pumpkin. I've got a clodbuster that needs some tlc had far too many jumps and rollovers
Eventually want a fresh body for it for a full resto, including bigger motors.
Had a nitro car for a while but hardly got used so took ages to get running properly, loved it when it was running well though.

Was given a chasis from Mar_k about a year or so ago that neeeded a rebuild, ended up fixing the chasis and getting to nice working order and then yesterday came across a bargain and collected it today...some pic's-
then all fitted up to new chasis, looks ace!
